Covid Contact Tracing QR Registration

Below is information on Covid Contract Tracing at speedway tracks and how to go about doing it with your mobile device. At the bottom of this page, there is a test code for you to try to make sure your phone is working with QR Codes.

Currently, the VSC know that the following tracks are operating QR Codes:

Alexandra Speedway Bairnsdale Speedway
Blue Ribbon Raceway Nagambie Speedway
Nyora Raceway Rosedale Speedway
Simpson Speedway Sonic Speedway
Southern 500 Speedway Wahgunyah Speedway

As part of the government regulations for contract tracing, when you visit tracks as a driver, crew, spectator, volunteer, etc, you will be required to check-in and check out. The above tracks will have a QR code that you will need to scan with your mobile device.

It is mandatory for all persons visiting speedway regardless of age to check-in. The system VSC is providing to its tracks allows you to add family members after your initial check-in.

Scanning the code at the track will give you a link to open in your browser which will be specific to the track you are at. It will ask you to fill in your details which will only be used should the unfortunate occur.

When you fill in your details there is an option to save details. Select this and next time you visit one of the above tracks you will only have to select to check-in without the need to fill in your details again.

Your details are kept securely on a cloud-based database for 28 days per the government regulation. They are not used for marketing purposes or sold to marketing companies. They will only be accessed if required by the government.
